Selectarc MIG F17/0

This solid wire, designated MIG F17/0, is specifically formulated for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) of ferritic stainless steels containing 17% chromium, such as grade 430. It’s designed for applications requiring high resistance to oxidation up to 900°C, particularly in sulfurous gas environments like chemneys. The wire also offers good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, water corrosion, and light acids, making it suitable for service temperatures up to +450°C. It is commonly used for hardfacing piping systems and surfacing fittings and valves.

Primarily used in GMAW applications for hardfacing and surfacing stainless steel components, particularly in environments exposed to high temperatures and corrosive atmospheres. Suitable for use in chemneys and piping systems. Offers resistance to oxidation, water corrosion and light acids.
